Wacky, and surreal; fun to read and it left me wanting more! So great when the sequel lives up to the promises of the first volume.

This continues the story of Motherless Oven, but leans into its strengths (the strange logic and beautiful illustration of the allegorical world) & fixes some weaknesses (the main characters now have some emotional depth).

This also continues to verify my theory that all British art is ultimately about social class. Man. Being British must be suffocating.
